1.1 Safety in use
Disconnect all unused test leads before starting measurement; otherwise the instrument can be damaged! If the test equipment is used in a manner not specified in the User Manual, the protection provided by the equipment may be imparied. Read this instruction manual carefully, otherwise use of the instrument may be dangerous for the operator, for the instrument or for equipment under test! Use only grounded mains outlets to supply the instrument! Do not use any damaged mains outlet, damaged mains connection cable or damaged measurement leads! Service or calibration procedure must only be carried out by a competent authorized person! Only a skilled person, who is familiar with hazardous voltage operations, can handle MultiServicer! In some countries the differential leakage and touch leakage current measurements shall be executed for normal connection of tested equipment and also for the connection with changed L and N. Rotate plug connector of tested equipment and repeat the measurement for changed L and N. Consider local regulations. , signs on front panel:

Meaning of

General notes:
Disconnect all unused test leads before starting measurement, otherwise the instrument can be damaged! If instrument is not grounded Ert (earth) message is displayed. Disconnect mains supply and connect it to grounded outlet. For all measurements except leakage current and discharging time, if an external voltage is present on the test terminals then the following message will be displayed: U_1 if external voltage (> 30 V) is present on test terminals Hi Lo terminals U_2 if external voltage (> 145 V) is present on Withstanding test terminals I_2 if current (> 15 mA) is present on Test socket 2 Measurement will not be done if external voltage is present

4.1 Withstanding 2500 V


Warning ! Disconnect all unused test leads before starting measurement, otherwise the
instrument can be damaged! Only a skilled person, who is familiar with hazardous voltage operations, can perform this measurement! Check instrument and test leads for any sign of damage or abnormality before connecting them to the instrument. DO NOT use test probes in case of any damage or abnormality! Always handle with the instrument and connected accessories as the Withstanding test sockets and leads are under the hazardous voltage! Never touch exposed probe tip, connections equipment under test or any other energized part during the measurements. Make sure that NOBODY can contact them either! Connect test probes only for measurement of withstanding, and disconnect them immediately after the test! DO NOT touch any part of test probe in front of the barrier (keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probe) possible danger of electric shock! Always use lowest possible trip-out current. If GND test probe is not connected, instrument doesnt start the measurement. Sign Pro is displayed.

Instructions for using the test tip:


- push the button to unlock the sleeve and touch tested object with test tip (keep the button pushed while the sleeve is not retracted upon few millimeters at least, than release it and retrieve the thumb behind the barrier). - after the measurement retract the test tip from tested object and sleeve comes automatically over the tip. - the sleeve locks itself automatically when it fully recovers the tip.

Tripping out current values: 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 mA. If the set tripping out current is higher than 10 mA it is necessary to set it for every measurement (after the measurement limit is automatically set to 10 mA). To avoid that safety function, press button Limit during switching ON the instrument. If there is a test current higher than the preset limit, then the measurement will be automatically concluded with fail signal . STEP 3. Connect test probes to the instrument and tested item as shown in figure below. Do not forget to switch off supply voltage.

6.1 Meteorological check
It is essential that all measuring instruments be regularly calibrated. For occasional daily use, we recommend an annual calibration to be carried out. When the instrument is used continuously every day, we recommend that calibration be carried out every 6 months.

6.2 After sales service


Repairs under or out of guarantee: Please return the products to your distributor.

6.3 Replacing the fuses


If there is any instrument malfunction, send the instrument to an appropriate service centre for all four fuses to be checked. See the purpose of each fuse in paragraph 3.14. Use original fuses only as declared in paragraph 3.14! Properly trained service personnel only can do it! .......... Disconnect all test cables and mains cord before opening the instrument. ......... Hazardous voltage may be present inside the instrument. Properly trained service personnel should only carry out operation. Fuse F4 is placed inside the instrument on the front panel.

7.5 Creating reports


To create a report, select the machines in the tree project browser. Selection is done with a combination of mouse clicks and the use of CTRL or SHIFT modifiers. Instead of selecting machines you can also select project or buildings. By selecting a project or a building all the machines in that object will be used in report. PATLink PRO offers two types of reports: Lite report: the report consists of machine measurement results Pro report: enables you to add additional info to reports: customer name, validator name, operator name, comments, testing instrument info...

Report can be created by selecting entries in project browser context menu, Tools main menu or by clicking the toolbar button. After you have chosen the desired command, the print preview (lite report) or report dialog (pro report) is shown. The report dialog is used for entering additional information as well as editing the results. Clicking the Print button shows the preview.
